So, we started with the clippers. But, about 1/4 of the way along, the clippers broke. The head lost a pin and it made the clipper part fly off. No spare part for that. So, I continued with my Fiskars garden snips. I sheared a sheep with scissors, and let me tell you, when the fleece is this bad, it takes FOREVER to do!!! I had to lay on the floor (concrete) of the unheated barn to get underneath her. My back hurts, my feet were like blocks of ice, not to mention my hands, but what a transformation after a couple of hours...
